It is a pretty common thing to pick up there. I don't know how that would affect pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2175299 Tue, 12 May 2015 09:19:27 +0000 MamaBehr 2175299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NurseMommy: please let us know how it goes on Wednesday!

Normally I wouldn't be worried about a stomach bug, but I am because I picked it up in the Dominican. My GP (don't see an OB until 20 weeks here) is on medical leave but her partner has agreed to see me Wednesday. I appreciate all the replies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2174117 Mon, 11 May 2015 10:37:58 +0000 BSB 2174117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My RE was able to get a heartbeat at 6 weeks through a transvaginal u/s. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2174087 Mon, 11 May 2015 10:22:13 +0000 Freckles 2174087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You can ask for an early ultrasound as early as 6 weeks. I would call your OB/midwife right away. It won't pick up on the Doppler so you'll need a req for the u/s. My symptoms for my missed miscarriage were my boobs stopped hurting and then I started bleeding. </p> <p>I had a stomach bug in my first tri (pregnancy 2) and everything was fine. Good luck! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2174045 Mon, 11 May 2015 09:55:37 +0000 Mrs. Taco 2174045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call! Although I will say last week I was hospitalized for dehydration (morning sickness + 48 hr bug) and the ER dr wouldn't even do an ultrasound. He said my hormone levels were great and that he doesn't like to do more ultrasounds than necessary. I was pretty frustrated but hoping my OB will do one tomorrow to help put my mind at ease (I'm 8 weeks). GL! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2174036 Mon, 11 May 2015 09:49:03 +0000 Mama Bird 2174036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely call, if only for peace of mind! It's too early for Doppler, but there's a good chance they'll pick up a heartbeat at 7 weeks. </p> <p>For what it's worth, I've had two stomach bugs with this pregnancy, thanks to having a toddler in day care. Baby is fine. Most of these bugs aren't the dangerous kind, despite how miserable they make you. Hope you all feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2174030 Mon, 11 May 2015 09:46:11 +0000 Keybee 2174030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call. We saw a heart beat at a 6 week ultra sound. Just to get a peace of mind. Good luck! I hope you feel better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2174016 Mon, 11 May 2015 09:38:05 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2174016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My OB was really proactive about checking things out if I felt anxious, because a relaxed momma is better for baby than a stressed momma. I would call &lt;3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173965 Mon, 11 May 2015 09:03:46 +0000 2PeasinaPod 2173965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd call my OB just to be sure. They picked up this pregnancy at 5.5 weeks...we weren't able to hear it, but we saw the flicker and they got a good read on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173956 Mon, 11 May 2015 08:56:31 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2173956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As others said, I'd call for your peace of mind. We saw the hb by u/s at 6 &amp; 7 wks. :goodluck: &amp; hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173900 Mon, 11 May 2015 08:20:26 +0000 mrsjyw 2173900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We saw a heartbeat at 6w2d with LO1. I would call just to be certain everything is okay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173888 Mon, 11 May 2015 08:12:55 +0000 Truth Bombs 2173888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We saw a heartbeat at 6w4d. If you are nervous go ahead and call, it can't hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173870 Mon, 11 May 2015 08:04:32 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2173870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely call. </p> <p>But I think if you aren't to the point of being hospitalized and dehydrated you should be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173840 Mon, 11 May 2015 07:45:11 +0000 Ree723 2173840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd call for peace of mind! I don't think you can reliably hear a heartbeat on the Doppler until around 10 weeks, but they would definitely be able to see it on an ultrasound by now. </p> <p>Good luck and I hope you all feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173835 Mon, 11 May 2015 07:43:02 +0000 charlotte 2173835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd also call for peace of mind. My OB routinely sees you at 7wks for first appointment anyway. Also, I had various stomach bugs on and off in first tri. and baby did just fine. One lasted a full week. :bummed: There are lots of icky ones that can make you feel awful while baby is doing just fine. Hope that is the case for you as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173827 Mon, 11 May 2015 07:38:08 +0000 dc yoga bee 2173827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call for peace of mind. They saw a heartbeat at 6 weeks for me. I hope you all feel better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173825 Mon, 11 May 2015 07:37:15 +0000 DesertDreams88 2173825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call my ob, if it were me. Can't hurt! They might want to bring you in for an appt or at least have baby-safe suggestions about getting back to health. And, the heartbeat usually starts being visible sometime during the 6th week by transvaginal ultrasound. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173822 Mon, 11 May 2015 07:33:14 +0000 MamaBehr 2173822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know with my last pregnancy, they were able to get a heartbeat with a transvaginal ultrasound at 6 weeks 5 days. I would call the OB/GYN, it can't hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anxious-re-missed-miscarriage#post-2173821 Mon, 11 May 2015 07:31:21 +0000 NurseMommy 2173821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi all,<br /> I used to be fairly active here but haven't been on much since my daughter was an infant. I'm 7 weeks pregnant with my second, and am having terrible anxiety.<br /> We just got back Friday from the Dominican Republic for my sister's wedding. Myself, my husband, and my daughter have all had gastroenteritis since Thursday. I am terrified that the cause may be an infection such as listeria, salmonella, or goodness knows what else that could cause fetal death. I am still having lots of pregnancy symptoms, but I know that a missed miscarriage can still maintain symptoms.<br /> So, realistically Bees, am I crazy, or should I really go get checked out?? How many weeks do you have to be before a doppler can pick up a heartbeat? </p>
